Fuel rates are based on fuel oil of 35 API

[16C (60F)] gravity having an LHV of
42 780 kJ/kg (18,390 Btu/lb) when used at 29C
(85F) and weighing 838.9 g/L (7.001 lb/U.S. gal).

Ratings are based on SAE J1228/ISO8665

standard conditions of 100 kPa (29.61 in. Hg),
25C (77F), and 30% relative humidity. These
ratings also apply at ISO3046/1, DIN6271/3, and
BS5514 conditions of 100 kPa (29.61 in. Hg),
27C (81F), and 60% relative humidity.

Additional ratings may be available for specific

customer requirements. Consult your Caterpillar
representative for additional information.

Performance data is calculated in accordance with tolerances and conditions stated in this specification sheet and is only intended for purposes of
comparison with other manufacturers engines. Actual engine performance may vary according to the particular application of the engine and
operating conditions beyond Caterpillars control.
